    reminds me of the Vosges bacon chocolate bar.

    I don't count calories or anything; I just try to use common sense. Eat vegetables (roasted or sauteed are my favorite, but I admit this typically adds a bit of fat), eat fried stuff in moderation, drink lots of water, brown carbs over white, etc. etc. Of course every once and a while I'll eat a whole baguette for a meal, dunked in olive oil or spread with butter, but nobody's perfect. I'm just glad I'm not a very big fan of sweets. I can go weeks without dessert and not notice.

    And black unsweetened coffee only has like twenty calories for a decent sized cup! Even when considering its acidity and caffeine, it has to be one of the least "damaging" indulgences on a day-to-day basis.

    the worst thing i ate was the "Fat Chick" sandwich 20 oz. fried chicken breast, LOTS of bacon and swiss, and what had to be 2Lbs. of fries. I almost vomited once I was out the door, and it took me 3 days before my apatite was somewhat back to normal, but hey, I got a free T-shirt!

    If your in Ithaca, go to Bench Warmers down on the commons.

    Now I feel bad about eating that sirloin burger from jack in the box the other day.

    I like their fried foot long tacos much more than I should. Thankfully the nearest location is about 700 miles from me.

    Being single kinda sucks when it comes to meal time. Cooking for one usually means a combo meal somewhere. I'm a skinny guy - so while it looks OK on the outside, I just hope my insides aren't rotting out. I've got a pretty good handle on what foods make me feel good and how much of the bad stuff I can get away with (I have a sweet tooth, but I don't always give in). And I've been getting back into running, which I used to do a lot anyway.

    Caffeine and alcohol though...both still whoop my butt. Comes in handy sometimes.

    I've been single for the better part of a year, and I cook a lot for friends. Even when I am cooking for one, I pretty much cook for four... might as well get some leftovers out of it. It's no fun to always eat alone.

    i'm on a coffee diet. i drink a large pot for breakfast and anything from the last 24hrs. that is capable of clogging things up gets flushed out with the mid morning poo.

    Anyone remember that 23,000-calorie sandwich some dude made? It had a couple pounds of steak on it, pounds of cheese, fried onion rings and all sorts of other stuff. I'm too lazy to find a link to it.

    Man... just got back from Friendly's. Wasn't sure what to get... I really wasn't that hungry. I wasn't gonna pussy out and get a salad, maybe I'll try the turkeyburger. Yeah, looks good, healthy... dammit... for $1.20 more I can get the colossal double cheeseburger... but I'm not that hungry. Dammit! It's too good of a deal to pass up. Bacon, 4 slices of cheese. Of course, I order the Colossal. Which comes with a plate of fries... and surprise, my dad and sister can't finish their fries so I get those too. Oh, my sister can't finish her fried chicken. Well, sign me up! Damn... I haven't had Forbidden Chocolate at Friendly's since I was like 12... I'm gonna need some of that, not sure when I'm going to be back here again. Maybe just one scoop. Just a taste. E36 M3! It's the same price to get the 2 scoop sunday with whipped cream and topping because I got a meal. Okay, sign me up. Damn... they have chocolate sauce, hot fudge, and swiss chocolate, just for the chocolate toppings. Screw it, give me the cubed vanilla pound cake topping.

    Doc, we diifer on a few political issues and it bugs you to know my BMW motorcycle is sexier than your Lotus, but I have just decided you will be my health care professional when I retire. You take TriCare?
